Collect Bonuses – you will most likely complete this step multiple times while working toward rescuing the 10 princesses.

At the end of 25 rounds, you are awarded the bonuses you have so far earned. You will not be awarded Arielle until you collect bonuses at the end of the final 25 rounds, even if you have already rescued the 10 princesses. If you have not rescued 10 at the end of that, restart the quest from begining and click the options that leads you right to the end and keep rescuing her.

NOTE: Every quest item, bonus item and population is accumulative. Don’t worry if you need to restart it.

Capture 15 Maidens. You will need to repeat this many times to complete 15 captures as you may not capture a Maiden every time, the use of 15 Maiden Souls yields about 12 Maidens, be prepared to go get more Empties, fill them, and come back.

Repeat the quest from beginning if needed, but proceed directly all the way to top without stopping in the middle, to complete all 15 captured Maidens.

After you’ve captured 15 Maidens, either continue to Explore Room. ( 5 Energy) or start again at Dark Tower and get back to this point and repeat until you get the “Special Event” again.

Complimenting the Dark Maiden on her beauty can give a Golem Bane, but other times she embraces you and leaves 1 million gold…

You can also get the golem by attacking the Dark Maiden, and the Shadow Maiden often gets in your way redoing the quest… get 7 or 8 Golem Banes then go for the Dark Maiden; when the Shadow Maiden intervenes restarting the quest, compliment her and get the last few Golem Banes, saves a few hundred energy.

For those collectors while attacking the Shadow Maiden does get her, you get her anyway from collecting the Dark Maiden later on, so no need to waste the energy/stamina at that point.
